If you can subscribe to communities on other instances than the one you're registered with, why register on one vs another?

Yeah I guess that's what I'm struggling with, say for example I'm into baking and there's a baking community here on .world, but maybe there's another one on .ml and wait here's a good one on .ca or something. So I'll be subscribing to three different baking communities in three different instances, it seems a bit redundant/divisive? But maybe it's just because it's early days, and with time the "best" communities will conglomerate and people will know the "best" baking community is on the .ml instances, but the best cooking one is on .world, etc, instead of subscribing to multiples of the same.

Servidor en español / castellano

muchas gracias. como otro ejemplo veo feddit.it (servidor italiano) que se creó el año pasado y tiene menos de 900 usuarios. yo creo que se puede hacer el servidor español, y si hay tanto interés, pedir ayuda a los usuarios. de verdad dudo que pasaría los 10k

I don't think I'll be visiting each community to look at each thread, but in my experience on Reddit, once you're subscribed to a certain number of communities you won't be able to see them all in your feed, so that's why I wonder :) Though I guess Reddit has some kind of interest algorithm to show you stuff, as I noticed that if I visited a subreddit directly it would then start coming up in my feed more often - I wonder if Lemmy would have the same kind of thing - the more you interact with a community the more likely it is to come up on your subscribed feed.

Hey, that's so cool! Here in Spain I have a LOT of Belgian neighbours, believe it or not, haha (and Dutch!) As you say land is quite expensive over there so I guess that's why they come here :) So is your place off grid or just hidden? I totally understand the struggle, I have an orchard and a forest around us but heating is still very complicated. We have a wood stove but there's not enough prunings from the orchard and we're not allowed to fell trees, besides pine is not great for burning. So every year we have to work something out ;) Having a workshop is also super important, I think a lot of people underestimate how many tools and other bits and bobs you're going to need when you want to homestead! But most of all - congratulations, must be super exciting!

Yeah, the only part of Europe we could afford was dry af so we only have rainwater, and in the past couple of years it's hardly rained at all. We do collect from every single roof we have, we can store just over 11.000 litres (~3000 gallons) but if it doesn't rain there's nothing to store. after 5 years we're just about ready to dig a well or move but we can't afford either :) we're doing okay though, we have water in the house and all our animals have enough to drink - the one thing we're missing is irrigation for a veggie garden. so mostly we grow vegetables in winter.

Thanks, it also looks like if I want to sub to a community on a different instance, I have to search for it from my own instance, as I can't hit "subscribe" in the community list on another instance. Regarding losing access to your account, do people keep multiple accounts to avoid this? No idea how likely instances are to go down.
